Not all the universities in the Pac12 have swim teams (my alamater being one) and likely not all of them have beautiful aquatic complexes.
After my swim today at pool #94 I thought why not hit all the pools at the Pac12 schools? If they don’t have a swim team they certainly must have a pool-right?
Pool #94 was Arizona States Sun Devil Fitness Center in Tempe. It’s a rather new looking facility with a 50 meter by 25 yard pool. I swam with the Swim Devils Masters team. Coach Jonny, a Brit with a fun accent had a funky and and fun workout that was a perfect recovery after two long slogs in San Francisco over the weekend.
It was a short practice and the main set was a kick set:
Six times through:
30 seconds kicking from the wall
50 kick
30 seconds vertical kicking
50 kick
30 seconds kicking on pool deck
100 kick
So I have swum at three of four Pac12 schools pools; USC, UCLA and now ASU. I am thinking I can get one more in by the end of October. This may challenge may take some time as I don’t have any reason to go to Coug Country and Pullman, Washington!
